Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Jake is a self-professed 'artist and filmmaker' who can't quite keep life together in the face of other people's success. However his life changes when small-time thief Jojo breaks into his car and steals his briefcase containing a book on screen-writing and Jake's filofax of 'contacts'. Jojo's new script ensures he quickly becomes the talk of the town.
